While Nic was on the road, I decided to knit and felt him a pair of bootees, or houseshoes, or how do you call them. See, my sister had knit and felt these bootees for me, and they are of course especially warm and comfortable on our cold floors. So Nic had asked for a pair.

While in Finland, me and my sister went hunting for the same yarn she had knit mine with, but unfortunately that wasn't available in the shops we had access to. So I decided to risk it, bought a few other sorts of felting wool and started experimenting after returning to Ireland.

My camera's been taken... by Nick, to Germany, where he is on holiday. So I have no means to post any new photos. SoI'll just link to Flicr, where I have a few photos of my Sauna-socks.

A few more moments from Finland. I picked these blueberries myself! You don't believe me? I have hands to prove it:

Nämä mustikat poimin itse! Etkö usko? Katsopa näitä! 

On Monday the heat rose up to 29 degrees Celcius, so a trip to the beach to sunbathe and lake-bathe was mandatory. It was wonderful, even though I din't get too much color.

I'm back from my little holiday in Finland! I left last week's Friday, and returned on Wednesday afternoon. It was really lovely there, I had luck with the weather and was meeting so many friends after a while - one after 8 years! Here's some bits of the trip.

Palasin lomaltani Suomesta! Lähdin viime viikon perjantaina, ja tulin keskiviikkona. Oli ihanaa, sää oli mahtava ja tapasin laumoittain ystäviä pitkästä aikaa - yhden jopa kahdeksan vuoden tauon jälkeen! Tässä kuvia.
